Tuition increase coming for UNG students after Board of Regents decision
UNG Gainesville
A 2 percent tuition hike has been approved for the University of North Georgia.
Students at the University of North Georgia campuses in Gainesville and Dahlonega will be paying more for school next year — the result of a 2 percent tuition hike approved this week by the Georgia Board of Regents for all 28 colleges and universities in the University System of Georgia. Regents did not increase tuition for the current academic year, and officials maintained that the Georgia system continues to offer some of the lowest tuition rates among similar public education systems. “With the generous support of the governor and legislature, we continue to focus on college affordability, while providing quality education,” said USG Chancellor Steve Wrigley in a news release.
